The Moving of the Water
Stories"Every Welsh American should own a copy of this book … These tales combine pathos, humour, drama and insightful observation in an anthology which is at once masterful, entertaining and illuminating." — AmeriCymru "Entertaining, thought-provoking, original, and inherently fascinating…" — Midwest Book Review "This collection of stories has a great-grandfather: Joyce's Dubliners. Like Joyce's, Lloyd's stories are in the realist mode, yet sometimes broken up with startling, dream-like, hallucinatory passages that are decisive in opening up another range of experience. The final title story is magnificent, no other word will do, and it recalls 'The Dead,' the concluding story of Joyce's book. If Joyce were from Utica, New York, as Lloyd is, he'd have written this book and called it Uticans." — Frank Lentricchia, author of The Music of the Inferno "A unique collection of stories that are sometimes puzzling, sometimes moving, sometimes enigmatic, and sometimes crystal clear, but always profoundly interesting." — Jan Morris, author of A Writer's House in Wales
